lyrics

I was landlocked
I slept right through the winter
I picked up all the splinters but forgot
how the ocean casts a dozen fleeting photographs
across my every glance

thoughts draw back to you
on a train trapped in grey-blue, only you
I saw how you could save it
with a word you told my truth
and now the twilight aches of you

I didn't quite grasp
the moment not yet passed
I know such things are made of glass
I understand the transience of living on a chance

thoughts draw round to you
to the light of long-dead stars
the stammering of hearts
where your thoughts turn after dark
I made this lullaby to guide you through the fog
I hope you hear it somehow
I couldn't mean it without
